We talk a lot about modeling behavior, and interrupting the systems that create space and opportunity for trafficking and exploitation.

Today we return for part two of our conversation about the difference between being trauma informed and trauma responsive or trauma ready, and what that has to do with the challenge to not be a trafficker. In this episode we talk about some specific examples of parallel processes and exploitive actions, ways to wade upstream, and more of our thoughts about trauma ready and trauma responsive services.

Today we begin a two-part conversation about the difference between being trauma informed and trauma responsive or trauma ready, and what that has to do with the challenge to not be a trafficker. In this episode we talk openly about our own ongoing journey with self-care, and challenging systems and norms around what success is and why that matters.
